With more businesses allowing employees to bring their own smartphone to work, the Korean based manufacturer is aiming for the enterprise starting with its SAFE initiative on the Samsung Galaxy S III and will attempt to convince IT department heads that Android is free from security risks and viruses...

How does publishing the source code used on the GS III disqualify Sammy from claiming the GS III is a secure device? Publishing the source code is probably the best way to prove security. AES256 is a published specification. Are you claiming that AES256 is not secure?

And if the map has no entry points? The reason encryption algorithms are published is to give peers in the encryption community a chance to poke holes in the algorithm. If the experts can't find a hole, there is less chance that a non-expert will find a hole.

Not if Apple and Google have anything to say about it. The Feds have a secure handset initiative underway that is headed by Boeing. Boeing is building a version of Android that will meet the requirements of the secure handset initiative.

So Windows 8 Phone is going to improve upon the butt-ugly interface of its predecessors? I ask that question because people buy phones for a lot of reasons. If they don't find the interface interesting and appealing, they will seldom look much further.

I'm a big Windows fan dating back to Windows 386, but I have to tell you that I will never own a windows phone until the OS aesthetic is revamped into something that allows open-ended customization (like Android). This current monotone postage stamp approach is horrible: a look only a true believer could love. It makes me want to spit.

Every company has a right to do any kind of business as long it is not against the law. Samsung is one of them, they want to enter this kind of business. I hope tbey will be successful. We still can't say that it will fail or not, it's too early to judge. Other companies can do that also, it's how they will execute and implemented it.
